the noah fecks

NOFX played a sold out show this past Leap Day at Stubb’s. I’ve been to Stubb’s many times, but I’ve never seen it this crowded.

I took some video, but I still have to have it cleaned up and enhanced by the talented N.

I also took some photos, but none of them turned out well. I’ll share a couple with you just so you can get an idea of the mayhem that ensued that night.

On the left with his arms out is El Hefe. Fat Mike is holding the mic in the middle. Behind the drums is Smelly. Melvin is cut off of this picture at the very right.

In this shot, El Hefe is playing the trombone at the end of The Decline. His wife is playing guitar for him next to Fat Mike.

Their performance was amazing. I am impressed every time I see this band. They crack jokes between songs, and their sound is just as good as what you hear on their albums. They are a very entertaining bunch to witness live.

Here’s an incomplete setlist of what they played that night in as near of an order as I was able to jot down:

Dinosaurs Will Die

Franco Unamerican

Perfect Government

Seeing Double at the Triple Rock

The Decline (!!)

Radio (“Rodeo”)

Leave It Alone

Pump Up the Valuum

Leaving Jesusland

Linoleum

See Her Pee

Eat the Meek

Bob

Murder the Government

The Brews

Bottles to the Ground

Stickin’ In My Eye

Kill All the White Man (encore)

They played a cover between See Her Pee and Eat the Meek, but I wasn’t sure what the song or who the artist was. They also played F**k the Kids somewhere in the mix. I may have also missed a song, but I think I got most of them.

I should have a video or two up here soon. The quality won’t be so great, but it’s a memory captured in digital worth sharing.
